Gustavo,
You clearly understand the issue and know the 3 methods of fulfilling this
requirement.
IMHO, since the problem explicitly stated which loopbacks should appear with
a /24 mask, I'm 99% sure there is no need to change the other loopbacks
masks.
(I'd be 100% sure except it's impossible to know what the task author was
thinking but based on what's written, if you lost points for just changing
the masks on R2 and SW1, then I would consider the grading wrong, not you.)
I think this example is good for highlighting a mistake many candidates
make. In this case, I would say that you are "overthinking" this task. If
you did go ahead and config all the other devices the same way, you probably
wouldn't lose any points for that but you would waste precious, limited time
doing so - time that could be much better spent doing other tasks.
HTH, Tim

Subject: Interpretation issue
Hello,
I'm having a interpretation doubt.
I have scenario running OSPF on which there every router as a Loopback
with a /24. The question states that R2 and Sw1 loopbacks are to be seen
with their proper mask, but we cannot use redist connected nor ip ospf
network. The solution is obviously to use area range.
My doubt is whether I should advertise all other loopbacks with their
proper mask /24 or I can let them appear as /32 on OSPF. Would letting
other loopbacks appear as /32 instead of /24 lose me points on the real
exam, for example?
Thanks
Gustavo
